Authorities confirmed seven people were killed in a fiery crash between a tour van and a pickup truck Thursday night on an eastern Idaho highway near Yellowstone National Park.

It remains unclear how a Mercedes van carrying 14 tour group members collided with a Dodge Ram pickup, killing six van passengers and the truck driver. The eight surviving passengers were transported to nearby hospitals.

The crash is under investigation and officials are withholding further details until families are notified.
